Re: Contract Law

Assuming a strict;y contractual relationship, an arms length transaction, the parties may try to limit their liability for example to the price of the goods they are selling as well as disclaiming the various warranties of merchantability as well as fitness for a particular purpose.

If you have questions in these matters, contact a reputable business attorney in your jurisdiction.
